1. Expression of a novel P275L variant of NADH:cytochrome b5 reductase gives functional insight into the conserved motif important for pyridine nucleotide binding

The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical disorder of recessive congenital methemoglobinemia

Abstract:

The clinical disorder of recessive congenital methemoglobinemia (RCM, OMIN 250800) is associated with mutations in NADH:cytochrome b5 reductase (cb5r) and manifests as cyanosis from birth. Screening a cyanotic infant indicated elevated methemoglobin levels and decreased cb5r activity suggesting RCM. Sequencing the DIA1 gene encoding cb5r revealed a novel mutation, C27161T (NCBI more...

2. Prevalence of gastrointestinal bacterial pathogens in a population of zoo animals

The aim of this study was to the prevalence of gastrointestinal bacterial pathogens - Campylobacter, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella, Shigella, Yersinia, Arcobacter

Abstract:

Faecal prevalence of gastrointestinal bacterial pathogens, including Campylobacter, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella, Shigella, Yersinia, as well as Arcobacter, were examined in 317 faecal specimens from 44 animal species in Belfast Zoological Gardens, during July-September 2006. Thermophilic campylobacters including Campylobacter jejuni, Campylobacter coli and Campylobacter lari, more...

3. Vagal neural crest contribution to the chick embryo cloaca

The aim of this study was to investigate the contribution of vagal neural crest cells to the total population of enteric neurons and glia within the chick embryo cloaca, using quail-chick chimeras

Abstract:

Intrinsic innervation of the developing chick cloaca is provided by the enteric nervous system, a network of neurons and glia that lies within its walls. The enteric nervous system originates from neural crest cells that migrate from the vagal and sacral regions of the neural tube during the early stages of development. Abnormal cloacal development can cause a number of anorectal more...
